It's not so hard.
1. unzip the file into Half-life2 directory. (like "c:\games\steam\steamapps\your@mail\half-life2\")

2. right click the half-life 2 shortcut in mygames at steam.
click properties/options
ther click launch options
and there type "-console -applaunch 220 -game jbmod"

done =)

when you play you must chose a map in console. type map and press space to see the maps.

then when you have started a map. type "give weapon_physgun" in the console. thas it
 
nah i just didnt know at all how to do it, *just remembers about a read me in zip* -_-'
 
Weird, I can't get the jbmod to work at all.
It loads and all that jazz, I just get 'no such entity' when I try to give myself the physgun.
And yes, I know it's weapon physgun, and I have installed it right and have my shortcut path right.
And my version of hl2 is the collector's edit.
 
Heh, I constructed a scorpion tail of barrels for my buggy and put a canister on the tip of it. I activated the canister and the tail would actually beat combines to death while maintaining good balance!
 
Where Can I Find?

WHERE CAN I FIND THIS MAGICAL MOD?!?!?!?!? :bounce:

I had the same problem.
It showed up that the zip file contains a folder with the name jbmod in it. and there's all the files
So i unzipped it into half-life2\jbmod
and then, of course, it went out like half-life2\jbmod\jbmod
=)
check it out. it can be that
 
Nope, unfortunately.
Strange too, because it's actually loading the mod info. The binds from the autoexec.cfg are there, they're just useless. Like I get "no such command physgun_switch" when I hit c.
Bleh.
 
ok how can i get the first version of this thing so that i can get all the higher versions?
or do i even need the first one?
can i just get v5 straight away on its own? please help this looks really cool
 
lol, just try it, if it dosn't work you only have to reinstall HL2
 
ok i need REAL help i dont want to risk hl2 to idiocy
 
Smoke, you can just download v0.5 and you'll be fine. You don't need the previous versions.
 
REALLY? ur not just trying to kill my comp?
cool how big is it? bear in mind that i have 56k
 
Well, why not try to click the link I so kindly posted at the beginning of the thread ( http://www.pcgamemods.com/8991/ )?
It's only 4.14 MB, pretty 56k friendly.

Remember to carefully read the ReadMe before installing. Alot of people make the misstake of not doing that and then comming here saying "it dosent work!"...
 
Can someone help me?

I downloaded the second version of this and had it working. Then i downloaded the 5th version installed it the same way but now it tells me there are no maps. I know with the second version you had to go into the console and do the changelevel or whaterver but when i try to changelevel it says it cant be found
 
wtf? ok i tried the 5th version but all i get from winzip is a frikkin screensaver! have i done something wrong?!?!?!??
 
im also confused, wat is the Constraints? rope and ballsocket?? (if they have somthing to do with USEING them, how??)
 
ratm9200, did you overwrite the new version over the old version? Check your "maps" folder inside of jbmod

smoke, inside of winzip is there a folder called "jbmod" and a file called ReadMe? If so, just follow the ReadMe's directions and you'll be fine.

Vito Dintino: Those related to the new types of welding points you can make. Fixed makes a solid connection, ball-and-socket backs a pivoting connection, and rope makes a tethered connection with a rope.
 
i need help playing the jbmod! i cant figure out how to make it play!

please help me!
 
What do you mean by "make it play"? You need to be a bit more specific. If you mean that you cant get a map to load, then you just need to open up the Console and type in "map" or "changelevel" and the press space, and then all the maps will be listed out for you.
 
no i mean i cant even figue out the readme.!

omg im computer illiterat when it comes to mods!
it says to unzip to the hl2 folder so i did, i found the things u said and the readme(obviously) but i cant make another step from there, perhaps u can put it so i can understand?
 
Checklist: (ignore the space in "half")
1.) Extracted jbmod into "C:\Steam\SteamApps\username\half-life 2" and NOT "C:\Steam\SteamApps\username\half-life 2\hl2". Thusly, the path after extraction to the MOD should be "C:\Steam\SteamApps\username\half-life 2\jbmod"
2.) You created a shortcut to run Half-Life 2, with the target on the shortcut being "C:\Steam\Steam.exe -applaunch 220 -game jbmod"
3.) You typed "give weapon_physgun" and not "give weapon_physcannon" or any other variation.

If it still dosent work, reinstall; becuase the error you got is pretty much saying "the thing you wanted to spawn dose not exist", which it shouldent if you installed properly.
 
ok ive moved the jbmod folder and the readme. into where u said, the folder at 1. so what now?
sorry to be a pain.
 
ok ive done all the shortcut crap and ive loaded up a coast map,
but i cant get the gun to spawn, i typed give weapon_physgun but it tells me tht it dosent exist

HELP!!!
 
Ok, then you have not installed it correctly if it tells you that...once again, I refer to my checklist:

by reinstall do u mean download?

if u are willing to help me still ( TO MY ETERNAL GRATITUDE )then we can discuss this there.

(i mean the thred im making)
 
I'm having the same issue *shrug*
You can tell I'm a pretty competant user, and I've been gaming since the days of Duke 3d (and come on, some of those mods were pretty damned difficult to get working).
Ah well, no biggie.
